K.L.L.K/Between The First Heliocentric And The Great Deceiver Of Light/Mithra!Infrasound/2015 Cassette Review

K.L.L.K are a band from France that plays a very atmospheric form of occult black metal and this is a review of their 2015 ep "Between The First Heliocentric And The Great Deceiver Of Light" which was released by Mithra! Infrasound.

Nature sounds start off the cassette giving the music an avant garde atmosphere and after awhile the music starts to get more heavy and brings in an atmospheric black metal sound along with soem grim high pitched screams a few seconds later that also have a depressive feeling at times and both of the tracks are very long and epic in length.

Most of the music sticks to either a slow or mid paced musical direction and you can also hear melodies being utilized in certain sections of the recording and as the ep progresses the music also starts mixing in experimental elements at times giving the songs more of a ritualistic feeling while some of the slower riffs also adds a touch of drone to the recording and there is also a brief use of deeper vocals.

K.L.L.K plays a style of occult black metal that is very raw and atmospheric while also adding in different influences to give their songs more of an original feeling, the production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Indo - Europeanism, Celtic Rituals, Cosmogonies, Julius Evola, and Mithraism themes.

In my opinion K.L.L.K are a very great sounding atmospheric occult black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Rahu". 8 out of 10.
